Hi there!

The other day I tried to control Scala via ARexx. the Idea behind this
is that my Editing Software (Supercut) can invoke ARexx commands to
control other software. And I tried to force Scala to show the next
page on every arexx event sent to scala.

But as far as the manual explains, there seems to be no "Show Next"
command.
What I want to achieve is a functionality similar to the right mouse
button, which shows the next page from my script. I tried some
commands but didn't find the appropriate.

What do I have to do to force Scala to show the next page from a
(previously loaded) script?

If you really know how the hardware works, you'll write better software,
and if you really know how the software works, you'll design better
hardware.
